Beanie Show Survey

I have attended many shows and have found the majority of them to be well organized. I constantly receive notes from collectors concerned about shows and asking many questions.

I feel that most Beanie shows have enhanced Beanies and have allowed collectors to gather and view pieces, which they may have never seen. I also feel that Beanie celebrities or so-called experts have been a draw for shows. Many collectors want to speak and have the opportunity to ask questions and possible have a Beanie authenticated by an expert.

If you have attended a Beanie show in the last year, please take the time to participate in the following survey. Also please feel free to add any additional comments regarding shows.
